So good.

The now-former football coach at WSU is threatening to sue Washington State over his termination, arguing that the mandate violated his rights as a “devout Catholic.”

These people are stupid.

Guess he ain't listenin' to the Big Guy.

Exactly. He didn’t keep the religion part vague but instead specified Catholicism.

Wtf does Christianity have to do with this shit? Tell me you're a Christian Scientist who's practiced non intervention with a huge cavity in your mouth and a family member walking around with a broken arm they won't get a cast for, or get the fuck out of here.

If I were a believer I'd call these idiots sinners, like God just didn't give you the virus because you're doing such a good job.

Xian Scientists do believe in and support and recommend to their people vaccination because it is about taking care of your brethren. There really is no religion that is against vaccination.

Even THOSE guys are down with it. Yeah, the whole thing is a masquerade.

Moderna and J & J now approved.

What's stopping ya now?

My partner is dealing with an employee ready to file an exemption to the government mandate for 'religious reasons'. He didn't even specify a specific form of Christianity, or could cite a verse to back up his objection. He's prepared to lose his good gov't job, and has like 4 fuckin' kids. Even if he's gonna be that dumb I can't believe no one in his sphere has talked sense into him.

I think some of those idiots have been expecting to find the streets teeming with angry, defiant vax-dodgers, only to see that most of their peers are finally accepting reality and the hold-outs are numbering in the mere dozens.

From what I've read (and heard from a bandmate who is an HR director for a school district dealing with this) the main religous exemption request is based around something with part of the development of the vaccines coming from fetus cell lines that date back to the 70s. But that's bullshit, as that means you also can't use Tylenol or Tums or Preperation-H or Ibuprofen as those also used fetal stem cell lines as part of the R&D.
